The Song of Moses and Miriam - Israel’s great victory hymn sung on the far shore of the Red Sea, one of the oldest poems in the Hebrew Bible.

Full sung version coming soon.

Lyrics

I will sing to the LORD For he has triumphed gloriously He has thrown the horse and his rider into the sea

The LORD is my strength and song He has become my salvation This is my God, and I will praise him My father’s God, and I will exalt him The LORD is a man of war The LORD is his name

He has cast Pharaoh’s chariots and his army into the sea His chosen captains are sunk in the Red Sea The deeps cover them They went down into the depths like a stone Your right hand, LORD, is glorious in power Your right hand, LORD, dashes the enemy in pieces

Who is like you, LORD, amongst the gods? Who is like you Glorious in holiness Fearful in praises, doing wonders?

I will sing to the LORD For he has triumphed gloriously He has thrown the horse and his rider into the sea I will sing to the LORD

You, in your loving kindness Have led the people that you have redeemed You have guided them in your strength To your holy habitation The peoples have heard, they tremble Pangs have taken hold of the inhabitants of Philistia

You will bring them in And plant them in the mountain of your inheritance The place, LORD, which you have made for yourself to dwell in The sanctuary, Lord, which your hands have established The LORD will reign forever and ever

Sing to the LORD For he has triumphed gloriously He has thrown the horse and his rider into the sea I will sing to the LORD

Sing to the LORD For he has triumphed gloriously
